Eternabond tape to secure coax on a roof
Has anyone used Eternabond tape to secure satellite coax to a fiberglass roof? If so, what were your results. I just don't want to drill holes in the roof if I don't need to. Thanks Marty

- Thank you for the replies. Marty
- If covering the base with Dicor forget those mounting bases and just use an adhesive such as Dicor. If exposed to sunlight, those mounting bases will self destruct in a couple of years and the adhesive tape used dries up.

Now that's the way I would go. Easier to remove, should the cable ever need replacing or rerouting.
I used wire ties and self adhesive mounting bases to position the cable where I wanted it to run on the roof then covered the mounts with attached cable with DiCor lap sealant. So far the installation has lasted 9 years without any problems.- I used wire ties and self adhesive mounting bases to position the cable where I wanted it to run on the roof then covered the mounts with attached cable with DiCor lap sealant.

- Works great. I used it for my Wifi antenna coax up to the frig vent.
- Me too. Keeps cable put & protects it from direct sunlight.
- yes, i used strips to act like cable fasteners
5yrs still holding - If I recall correctly, mine was held down with white Dicor Self Leveling Lap Sealant.
